What I do is go like I'm doing Avantgo and just copy the URL instead of adding it to 
Avantgo.  It's the only thing that account's good for anymore.

Well, I've got the weather resolved, so now just need to figure out
how to pluck a set of mapquest directions.

I suppose I could always copy the url to plucker-build, but it would
be nice if i could do it a bit quicker.  Since the pda-friendly version's
available for avantgo, it should be doable.
